“We lost a golden opportunity”. That was the judgement of Cameroon keeper Hamidou Souleymanou after the Indomitable Lions lost their opening match to Japan.

 

With Denmark and Holland to come, Paul Le Guen’s team have a very difficult task if they are to progress through the group stages of South Africa 2010. Souleymanou himself said “The only thing left for us now is reviving our fighting spirit and working hard, seriously, to win the next game.”

Midfielder Enoh Eyong admitted that failure to win their next match against Denmark would probably see an end to their campaign.
